How do we know where things are?

(Dartmouth College) Our eyes move three times per second. Every time we move our eyes, the world in front of us flies across the retina at the back of our eyes, dramatically shifting the image the eyes send to the brain; yet, as far as we can tell, nothing appears to move. A new study provides new insight into this process known as " visual stabilization " . The results are published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
